The Russian Mosin Nagant &
Historic Military Firearms Page is
dedicated to the collecting and
preservation of the rifle Mosin and
all other historic military firearms.

The popularity of the Mosin has grown
over the past few years as more and
more people discover how interesting
and affordable these rifles are to
collect.

The purpose of this site is to offer
the novice and advanced collector an
overview of the Mosin Nagant as well
as information about cleaning and
caring for them as well as articles
about collecting and shooting them.
This site grew out of a handful of
photos several years ago that I posted
to showcase some of my acquisitions.
Since then I have done extensive
research into the history of these
rifles and have expanded the site with
that information. You will also note
that there are articles posted here
from noted researchers like Terence
Lapin and Karl-Heinz Wrobel. With
their help and the help of
researcher/collectors like Vic Thomas,
this site has become one of the best
known resources on the web for Mosin
information!

As you read through this site, keep in
mind that it has been developed and
dedicated to the idea of preserving
these historic military firearms. We
have been entrusted with these
historic treasures so we have a
responsibility to pass them on to
future generations. So many great
historic military weapons have become
"extinct" over the years because
non-collectors have approached them
with an attitude that as "military
surplus", they were junk and available
in boundless quantities. As a result,
they used these historic firearms for
experiments in gunsmithing that were
eventually discarded. Please join us
in advocating the preservation of all
historic military firearms.
